You can find a multitude of resources online for learning European languages, but when it comes to learning Thai, the pickings are paltry. Therefore, when Lexiophiles published their Top 100 Language Blogs post, I went through the list to see what I could cull for language learners, no matter what language they are studying.

Lexiophiles Top(ish) Language Blogs…

Mission to Learn
How to be more successful in finding and benefiting from learning experiences – online and off.

The Linguist Blogger
Dialects, languages, language learning, polyglots, hyperpolyglots, philology and pedagogy. The blog is stagnant for now, but the information is useful.

The Language Chronicle (no longer online)
Mission: To serve as the ultimate source for information on foreign languages and how to learn them.

Not there but (IMHO) should be…

All Japanese All The Time Dot Com
How you can learn Japanese (and many more languages) without taking classes, by having fun and doing things you enjoy—watching movies, playing video games, reading comic books—you know: fun stuff!
